Sky Sins is a 25-year-old Indian origin entrepreneur and Instagram sensation who’s built an international fitness brand that’s inspiring the youth to dream big, work hard and live well. He underwent his fitness transformation from a kid with low self-esteem to a fitness cover model by the time he was 18. Now at 25 years of age, Sky inspires people to healthily achieve their fitness goals. When asked about his past and how he grew up to be a model, Sky said, "My parents are Indian entrepreneurs who moved to Africa for their business. I was born in Kenya and grew up in South Africa which still had a lot of racial tension leftover from the apartheid era. As a kid, I faced a lot of racial discrimination for being Indian. I was told Indians were genetically inferior when it came to playing a sport or being physically built. I used that to fuel my transformation and got my first gym membership at the age of 15. By the time I was 16 I was a different person both physically and mentally. I wanted to help young guys like myself break the stereotype, achieve their goals and live a confident life. I taught myself web development and started my first fitness-related business in 2011. I interviewed top international fitness models and bodybuilders about their diets and training routines and what advice they had for young guys who wanted to look like them. The website got an amazing response and the site was ranked as the most visited sports blog in South Africa at the time. It was my first introduction to entrepreneurship and what it felt like to create value for other people. I honestly wasn’t even thinking about money. I was just wanted to share my passion and help people understand they could achieve their goals through the correct nutrition, training, and mindset. I started modelling and ended up getting featured on the cover of Men’s Health India at the age of 18 which proved to me that anything was possible. I decided to leave South Africa and moved to the USA to pursue my education. I continued to develop my website and share my fitness journey on social media while studying marketing and entrepreneurship at Northeastern University in Boston. I joined the marketing team at Amazon Web Services in Seattle but soon realized that 9-5 corporate life was not for me. I dropped the USA visa and even turned down an offer to take on the role of a marketing director at large Venture Capital firm in South Africa. (All Photos: Instagram)
